Build Digital Products that #MoveTheDate

We’re building our product department inside one of Germany’s leading sustainability companies. Our mission: deliver digital services that push Earth Overshoot Day further into the future by enabling a true circular economy. Some initiatives start from a blank sheet of paper; others extend and modernise our existing platform. If you’d like to shape what we build - and how we build it - rather than just pick up tickets, let’s talk.

Key responsibilities include:

• Collaboration : Together with Product, UX and Front-End colleagues, design and implement the PHP back ends of both brand-new and evolving products you’ll stay with for the long haul.
• Modeling : Translate business goals into sturdy domain models and reliable services that deliver real customer value.
• Architecture : We’re moving toward a headless, microservice-oriented landscape. As a senior, you’ll help create clean APIs, refine coding standards and champion the right refactorings.
• Automation : Build and refine GitLab pipelines, Docker images and workflow engines that remove manual steps – both in development and inside the products themselves.
• Frontend partnership : Partner closely with front-end teams so the data, endpoints and performance they need are always there, making the user experience shine.
• Leadership : Mentor junior engineers, run architecture sessions or even lead a small squad when it fits your personal goals.
• Innovation : Experiment with new PHP features, Laravel packages, cloud services and patterns that help us close product loops faster. Your ideas are welcome.

• Experience: 5 + years of professional PHP experience, with deep knowledge of Laravel (Eloquent, Queues, Artisan, etc.).
• Programming Skills: Solid grasp of RESTful API design, relational databases (MySQL/PostgreSQL) and containerisation with Docker.
• Frontend : Familiarity with our frontend technology stack (React/Next.js/Typescript) can be a plus, if you want to work full stack, you can.
• DevOps : Familiarity with GitLab CI/CD – our DevOps team handles the heavy lifting, but you know your way around.
• Commerce : Experience with Magento and/or eCommerce in general can help us in some products.
• Architecture : A feel for clean architectures, test automation (PHPUnit, Pest, Cypress) and the judgement to choose the right pattern at the right time.
• Languages: Fluent English (German is a bonus), a collaborative mindset and genuine curiosity about how products succeed in the real world.
• EU-Work: A valid EU work permit; candidates already based in Germany (or nearby EU countries) are strongly preferred.

Ready to make a difference?

• Variety: shape greenfield services from scratch and breathe new life into proven applications - both matter equally.
• Work where you thrive: 100 % remote within Germany or on-site in our modern offices - your call.
• Competitive salary plus extensive benefits: company pension scheme, Germany ticket, bike leasing, family & life counselling, comprehensive health programmes and more.
• Opportunity to shape: Plenty of freedom to influence how our new product organisation takes shape.
• Purpose with measurable impact: every feature you ship advances the circular economy and our #MoveTheDate mission.
